Isaiah 65-66

1) What are the three types of relationship that were broken by sin in
the opening chapters of Genesis? What is an example of one of these
that you have faced recently?
2) In 65:17-25, in what ways do we see the curse of sin being reversed
in the New Heaven and New Earth?
3) How does the above passage compare to Revelation 21:1-4? Do they
contradict each other on whether there is death in the New Earth? Is
it signficant that the heavenly city comes down to earth rather than
us escaping earth to Heaven?
4) Why do you think both Revelation and Isaiah make a point of
describing those excluded from the new city God will create?
5) Look at the following passages that we did not cover in the sermon
in depth. How does each one relate to the main themes of the passage?
a) Chapter 65:13-16
b) Chapter 66:1-6
c) Chapter 66: 7-12
d) Chapter 66:13-17
6) How will our lives be different if we are confident of the truth of
these passages and think about that truth often?
